2. The complex apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the housing includes two plate portions separated from each other in a width direction of the recording device; a pair of the second contact portions is provided corresponding to the two plate portions; and a pair of each of the first contact portions and the third contact portions are provided corresponding to the pair of the second contact portions.

3. The complex apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising: an information input unit configured to instruct the recording unit to record on the medium; and a pair of support portions, provided in the apparatus frame, that spans the information input unit and supports the information input unit on the apparatus frame, wherein a plurality of the third contact portion are provided in areas extended from the support portions.

4. The complex apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the periphery of a plurality of the second contact portions of the housing has shapes that surround a plurality of the first contact portions that make contact therewith.

5. The complex apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the image reading device includes a sensor for reading an image and a carriage on which the sensor is mounted and that moves; and when the image reading device is in the closed state, the first contact portion is disposed below a region of movement of the carriage.

6. The complex apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the carriage includes a motor and a housing portion that houses the motor, and when the image reading device is in the closed state, the first contact portion is disposed below the housing portion.

7. A complex apparatus comprising: a recording device including a recording unit that executes recording on a medium, the recording device including an upper portion; an image reading device configured to be freely openable/closable with respect to the upper portion of the recording device via a hinge portion, the image reading device including an image reading unit that reads an image; an apparatus frame that holds the recording unit of the recording device; a first contact portion configured to make contact with the apparatus frame when the image reading device is in a closed state, the first contact portion being provided in the image reading device; an opening provided in a housing of the recording device, the opening being configured to receive the first contact portion when the image reading device is in the closed state; and a second contact portion configured to make contact with the first contact portion, the second contact portion being provided in the apparatus frame, the first contact portion, the opening, and the second contact portion being aligned to transfer loads from the image reading device to the apparatus frame.

8. The complex apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the housing includes two plate portions separated from each other in a width direction of the recording device; a pair of the openings is provided corresponding to the two plate portions; and a pair of each of the first contact portions and the second contact portions are provided corresponding to the pair of openings.

9. The complex apparatus according to claim 7 , further comprising: an information input unit configured to instruct the recording unit to record on the medium; and a pair of support portions, provided in the apparatus frame, that spans the information input unit and supports the information input unit on the apparatus frame, wherein a plurality of the second contact portions are provided in areas extended from the support portions.

10. The complex apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the first contact portion and the second contact portion are formed having complementary shapes.

11. The complex apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the image reading device includes a sensor for reading an image and a carriage on which the sensor is mounted and that moves; and when the image reading device is in the closed state, the first contact portion is disposed below a region of movement of the carriage.

12. The complex apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein the carriage includes a motor and a housing portion that houses the motor, and when the image reading device is in the closed state, the first contact portion is disposed below the housing portion.
